And you'll have to pay for it yourself!
"H.R.4205- Floyd D. Spence National Defense
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2001"
My interpretation is that you could build a Military
Radio/HMMWV/Deuce-and-a-half/M151/Airplane from
wrecked parts...anything on the list of Significant
Military Equipment and be forced to demil
it....regardless of whether it was demilled when you
bought it- you would now have to demil it again!
I sure would like to know what other collectors think
about this... And who's Floyd D. Spence anyhow????
